Went to a Young Republicans meeting in GA once. Literally all the conversation centered around whom one knew, for whom one might be interning, for whom one might be working... not one word spoken of ideals, philosophy, or tangible political goals.
They were the most colorless, unremarkable, inoffensively bland people I had ever encountered. People you'd never want in your foxhole in a fight.
They are termites (Democrats)
I have complete respect for them because they actually stand on their principles. Oxymoronic is that sounds.
I oppose everything else about them but they do believe in something. Most here on the right do not. Facts are facts.
